Description of problem and/or code sample that reproduces the issue

What are the supported dtypes to work with ChunkStore and VersionStore, so i can store my dataframe correctly. I get data from bloomberg and recently when trying to work extensively with ChunkStore. I just suffer with conversion of dtypes without knowing what to store. for instance i get errors with volumes if they are set to int64, i should convert them to float64 else i have a problem.

Can you please tell me what kind of data i can store, without spending time tinkering from type to type.

Many thanks

Not sure if I understand this issue properly, can you put an example here? You shouldn't need to convert the dtypes yourself, arctic should do it for you and give you back in the same type. + @spyamine
